Southern Illinois University Edwardsville’s Dan Rosner, Cougar Village assistant community director, was named the regional National Residence Hall Honorary (NRHH) Advisor of the Month for December 2012. NRHH is the recognition branch of the National Association of College and University Residence Halls (NACURH).
NRHH supports monthly recognition of student staff, programs, professional staff, faculty and more through “Of the Month” awards. Resident Assistant and former Cougar Village Desk Manager Teagan Smith nominated Rosner, who is a St. Peters, Mo. native. The nomination focused on Rosner’s work as a mentor and supervisor to the desk manager staff and Cougar Village residents.
“Dan is more than just a staff member in housing,” Smith said. “He is a leader, mentor and friendly face. Above all else, he is there to advise and lend his vast knowledge and experience to anyone.”
Vicky Dean, NRHH advisor and Rosner’s colleague, also commented on Rosner’s nomination, “Dan is extremely deserving of being recognized at the regional level.”
“As a graduate student seeking a career in student affairs, he has truly demonstrated a commitment to helping students,” Dean said. “As he supervises students, they clearly see how completely committed Dan is to not only the job, but also the growth of everyone with whom he works.”
